LF Insider: Practical Symmetric Encryption for Web Developers
This microcourse walks you through using symmetric encryption in real-world web applications, focusing on practical decisions rather than cryptographic theory. Learn how algorithms like AES protect data at rest and in transit, how encryption fits into HTTPS and TLS, and how to avoid common mistakes that weaken otherwise strong security controls.
